If this is open to 'slightly less classic' Porsches I'd like to bring my 964RS and have it dyno tested.

It had a top-end rebuild by Bob Watson in 2000, and tuning work by AmD when they were in Oxfordshire. It was dyno'd at the time and it would be interesting to see how time and additional mileage have affected the power either way.

1)Tim Bennett= RHD Targa 2.2T
2)Peter Cronin= 69 911T with 2.4
3) Helen & Larry Goff (to spectate)
4) Rich RSGulp = 92 964RS Lightweight - power run please
